The Quick Release Kit allows personnel to remove a ladder off the dock effortlessly and without tools for storage when not in use. The kit comes with two aluminum bars that are bolted to the dock. Each bar corresponds with the left or right mounting bracket on the ladder. Once the bars are installed on the dock, the ladder can be placed over the studs on the bar and are then secured with a locking pin. For docks in colder regions, this is an outstanding option if the ladders need to be removed from the dock during winter months.
